Almond Tart (Exclusive For Luckyscent)

So you’re crafting an almond tart and blind bake a buttery shell that is made primarily of almond flour and butter. Next you coat the shell with a thin layer of Valrhona or Callebaut chocolate to ensure your shell doesn’t get soggy. Finally, you fill the covered shell with frangipane and top with thinly sliced almonds. Pop that in the oven and what comes out is this gorgeous, delicious perfume. So wearable, so comforting. I don’t own a single cherry perfume to compare this with, but I don’t get cherries at all. It’s a love for me and for my husband and one of the best chocolate notes out there.

Oof spectacular. The butter will smack your olfactory instantly making you think there’s fresh popcorn in the microwave, no worries it will settle. The almond scent is lightly cherry leaning but overall not too sweet. Imagine having an indulgent breakfast consisting of an almond croissant and a cherry danish, chef’s kiss. If you generally like almond gourmand fragrances, you’ll enjoy this.

Great gourmand almond scent. Slightly cherry, but not syrupy. Very pastry-like; a true almond nutty fragrance. It is like they captured almond extract in a scent. Great sillage and longevity, but not cloying. A definite 10/10 Full bottle worthy and affordable so I bought the FB.

Almond pastry and chocolate. I go nose blind to it but others can smell it from far away, lasts hrs

Mine just arrived, and I tested it using the little blotter sample I also asked for Vs spraying the bottle in case I didn’t love it. To me, it is that type of almond that comes across as cherry - and it strongly reminds me of boadicea the victorious bodacious AND Tom ford post cherry - it’s somewhere in the middle. It’s richer than TF but not as dense and not woody like the boadicea the victorious can be. As it dries down, I think I can feel more of the tart part - maybe the butter, but never quite like a crust or bakery type of vibe that I expected. I’m hoping that changes once I spray from the bottle and after it sits after being shaken up in transit, but it’s a solid fragrance for the price!
